CEDAR GROVE, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- A pastor who says he was molested as a teen is speaking out to say now he can move on with his life.

Mike Lewis is the Pastor at New Life Church in Cedar Grove.

Lewis says he is one of Sandy Cook's victims.

Cook was convicted Friday in Kanawha County on 16 counts that involved sexually abusing teenagers.

He was the pastor at the Shrewsbury Church of God when the incidents happened.

In a statement Saturday, Lewis told WSAZ.com, "I chose not to dwell on the abuse I suffered or the process of justice, but rather to launch a new work in Kanawha County to assist other victims who have suffered sexual abuse."

Lewis says he will announce plans next week to work with law enforcement officials in tracking sex offenders.
